OH, ok. Try this code. It writes the DISP MEMO results to a text file and then uses low-level file commands to read the contents.

LOCAL laFiles( 1), lnHandle, lcData, lcFile

lcFile = SYS(3) + '.txt'
DISP MEMO TO FILE ( lcFile) NOCONSOLE

ADIR( laFiles, lcFile)
lnHandle = FOPEN( lcFile)
IF lnHandle > 0
lcData = FREAD( lnHandle, laFiles(1, 2))
FCLOSE( lnHandle)

ERASE ( lcFile)

*-- Here you can copy lcData to your memo field or whatever
? lcData
